Coal System Combustion optimization Coal G3 Online measurement of the coal mass flow between the mill and the burner Real time!
Receiver Transmitter A w o l f s s a m In case of roping: cover full cross section Easy installation: The sensors are mounted through easy drill and tap holes (14x1 mm) MECONTROLCoalMeasurement Principle „density“ Microwave measurement: 2 sensors in one pipe are used to measure the coal concentration over the FULL cross sectional area of the pipe.

1 h high time resulution plot of mass flow and velocity
Derived mill parameters t1 t2 Mill response time can be derived, Impact on load changes, Indication for mill wear and coal grindability
Mill Quality monitoring: Low standard deviation of concentrations and velocities Variation of velocity 1s: 0.7 m/s (2.1 ft/sec) Variation of coal loading 1s: 50 g/m
MECONTROL Coal Velocity Velocity is measured using a cross correlation technique (picture: pipes 1 through 8). Measurement range: 5 m/sec to 50m/sec
MECONTROL Coal Absolute mass flow Out of the independent measurement values, density and velocity, the absolute mass flow is calculated without using any feeder signal. Measurement range: 10 g/sec to 20 kg/sec
